Conditions  of  Sale 


1.  Any  bid  which  is  merely  a  nominal  or  fractional  advance  may  be  rejected  by 
the  auctioneer,  if,  in  his  judgment,  such  bid  would  be  likely  to  affect  the  sale  in- 
juriously. 

2.  The  highest  bidder  shall  be  the  buyer,    and  if  any  dispute  arise  between 
two  or  more  bidders,  the  auctioneer  shall  either  decide  the  same  or  put  up  for 
re-sale  the  lot  so  in  dispute. 

3.  Payment    shall  be  made  of  all  or  such  part  of  the  purchase  money  as 
may  be  required,  and  the  names  and  addresses  of  the  purchasers  shall  be  given 
immediately  on  the  sale  of  every  lot,  in  default  of  which  the  lot  so  purchased 
shall  be  immediately  put  up  again  and  re-sold. 

Payment  of  that  part  of  the  purchase  money  not  made  at  the  time  of  sale, 
shall  be  made  within  ten  days  thereafter,  in  default  of  which  the  undersigned  may 
either  continue  to  hold  the  lots  at  the  risk  of  the  purchaser  and  take  such  action 
as  may  be  necessary  for  the  enforcement  of  the  sale,  or  may  at  public  or  private 
sale,  and  without  other  than  this  notice,  re-sell  the  lots  for  the  benefit  of  such  pur- 
chaser, and  the  deficiency  (if  any)  arising  from  such  re-sale,  shall  be  a  charge 
against  such  purchaser. 

4.  Delivery   of  any  purchase  will  be  made  only  upon  payment  of  the  total 
amount  due  for  all  purchases  at  the  sale. 

Deliveries  will  be  made  on  sales  days  between  the  hours  of  9  A.  M.  and  1  P.  M., 
and  on  other  days  —  except  holidays  —  between  the  hours  of  9  A.  M.  and  5  P.  M. 

Delivery  of  any  purchase  will  be  made  only  at  the  American  Art  Galleries,  or 
other  place  of  sale,  as  the  case  may  be,  and  only  on  presenting  the  bill  of  purchase. 

Delivery  may  be  made,  at  the  discretion  of  the  Association,  of  any  purchase 
during  the  session  of  the  sale  at  which  it  was  sold. 

5.  Shipping,  boxing  or  wrapping  of  purchases  is  a  business   in  which  the 
Association  is  in  no  wise  engaged,  and  will  not  be  performed  by  the  Association 
for  purchasers.     The  Association    will,  however,  afford  to  purchasers  every  facility 
for  employing  at  current  and  reasonable  rates  carriers  and  packers  ;  doing  so,  how- 
ever, without  any  assumption  of  responsibility  on  its  part  for  the  acts  and  charges 
of  the  parties  engaged  for  such  service. 

6.  Storage  of  any  purchase  shall  be  at  the  sole  risk  of  the  purchaser.     Title 
passes  upon  the  fall  of  the  auctioneer's  hammer,  and  thereafter,  while  the  Asso- 
ciation will  exercise  due  caution  in  caring  for  and  delivering  such  purchase,  it 
will   not   hold    itself   responsible   if   such   purchase   be   lost,    stolen,    damaged    or 
destroyed. 

Storage  charges  will  be  made  upon  all  purchases  not  removed  within  ten  days 
from  the  date  of  the  sale  thereof. 

7.  Guarantee   is  not  made  either  by  the  owner  or  the  Association  of  the  cor- 
rectness of  the  description,  genuineness  or  authenticity  of  any  lot,  and  no  sale  will 
be  set  aside  on  account  of  any  incorrectness,  error  of  cataloguing,  or  any  imper- 
fection not  noted.     Every  lot  is  on  public  exhibition  one  or  more  days  prior  to  its 
sale,  after  which  it  is  sold  "as  is"  and  without  recourse. 

The  Association  exercises  great  care  to  catalogue  every  lot  correctly,  and  will 
give  consideration  to  the  opinion  of  any  trustworthy  expert  to  the  effect  that  any 
lot  has  been  incorrectly  catalogued,  and,  in  its  judgment,  may  either  sell  the 
lot  as  catalogued  or  make  mention  of  the  opinion  of  such  expert,  who  thereby 
would  become  responsible  for  such  damage  as  might  result  were  his  opinion  with- 
out  proper  foundation.  SPECIAL  NOTICE. 

Buying  or  bidding  by  the  Association  for  responsible  parties  on  orders  trans- 
mitted to  it  by  mail,  telegraph  or  telephone,  will  be  faithfully  attended  to  without 
charge  or  commission.  Any  purchase  so  made  will  be  subject  to  the  above  Condi- 
tions of  Sale,  which  cannot  in  any  manner  be  modified.  The  Association,  however, 
in  the  event  of  making  a  purchase  of  a  lot  consisting  of  one  or  more  books  for  a 
purchaser  who  has  not,  through  himself  or  his  agent,  been  present  at  the  exhibition 
or  sale,  will  permit  such  lot  to  be  returned  within  ten  days  from  the  date  of  sale, 
and  the  purchase  money  will  be  returned,  if  the  lot  in  any  material  manner  differs 
from  its  catalogue  description. 

Orders  for  execution  by  the  Association  should  be  written  and  given  with 
such  plainness  as  to  leave  no  room  for  misunderstanding.  Not  only  should  the  lot 
number  be  given,  but  also  the  title,  and  bids  should  be  stated  to  be  so  much 
for  the  lot,  and  wnen  the  lot  consists  of  one  or  more  volumes  of  books  or  objects 
of  art,  the  bid  per  volume  or  piece  should  also  be  stated.  If  the  one  transmitting 
the  order  is  unknown  to  the  Association,  a  deposit  should  be  sent  or  reference 
submitted.  Shipping  directions  should  also  be  given. 

Priced  copies  of  the  catalogue  of  any  sale,  or  any  session  thereof,  will  be 
furnished  by  the  Association  at  a  reasonable  charge.

159.  CHOLTI.    Arte,  Divocionario  and  Vocabulary  in  beautiful  manuscript, 

with  ornamental  title  and  chapter  headings,  dated  1689,  1690,  1691, 
1692  and  1695  given  to  American  Philosophical  Society  in  1836  by 
D.  Marianao  Galvan.  Photographic  copy  of  18%pp.  (some  blank)  ; 
4pp.  preliminary,  55pp.  Arte,  20pp.  Doctrina,  74pp.  Vocabu- 
lario,  and  Ip.  final.  A  note  at  the  beginning  of  the  Vocabulary 
states  that  all  the  large  Vocabulary  of  Moran  has  been  copied  into 
this  one. 

This  is  a  much  more  complete  volume  than  the  one  in  the  previous 
Wilkinson  Sale.  It  is  the  only  known  grammar  and  vocabulary  of  the 
southeastern  Maya,  the  Cholti,  which  is  the  Lacandon-Itza  in  its  un- 
touched state,  almost  as  close  to  Maya  as  Quiche  is  to  Cakcliquel.

sheet,  about  fifteen  feet  in  length,  in  wooden  covers,  with  silver 
mounts.  Point  Loma,  California,  1911 

Only  a  few  copies  of  this  important  facsimile  have  been  privately 
issued  by  the  eminent  scholar,  Mr.  William  E.  Gates,  Point  Loma,  Cali- 
fornia, for  whom  the  photographs  were  taken. 

This  is  one  of  the  three  known  Maya  codices,  having  been  cut  at 
some  early  date  into  two  parts;  one  of  these  was  published  by  Brasseur 
de  Bourbourg  as  the  Codex  Troano,  in  lithography.  The  other,  dis- 
covered soon  after,  was  published  in  photographic  facsimile  by  Leon 
de  Rosny,  as  the  Codex  Cortes,  also  later  by  lithography,  in  Spain.  The 
two  parts  are  now  rejoined,  having  been  bought  by  the  Spanish  govern- 
ment, and  this  is  the  first  issue  of  the  two  together.

OF  THE  GREATEST  RARITY.  UNKNOWN  TO  SABiN.  The  remarkable  col- 
lection of  Mexicana  formed  by  Ramirez  did  not  contain  a  copy.  It  is 
probably  the  first  printed  grammar  (Arte)  of  the  Maya  language  of 
Yucatan,  and  a  revision  of  the  MS.  (?)  Maya  grammar  of  Bishop 
Diego  Landa.  On  the  fly  leaf  are  manuscript  notes  in  the  Maya  lan- 
guage by  a  contemporary  hand. 

Father  Coronel,  a  Franciscan,  graduate  of  the  University  of  Alcala, 
Spain,  went  to  Yucatan  in  1590,  where  he  learned  and  publicly  taught 
the  language  of  the  Indians.  He  was  one  of  the  disciples  of  the  Chron- 
icler Cogolludo,  and  was  guardian  of  the  Recollect  Convent  of  Mejorada. 
He  died  in  one  of  the  convents  of  Merida  in  1651,  age  82  years. 

THE  ABOVE  ITEM  IS  ONE  OF  THE  MOST  IMPORTANT  AND  VALUABLE  IN  THE 
PRESENT  COLLECTION.

half  calf.  Saec  XVI. 

A  WONDERFUL  XVlTH   CENTURY  MANUSCRIPT. 

From  the  library  of  the  learned  Mexican  scholar,  Dr.  N.  Leon,  who 
has  written  the  following  note  [in  Spanish]  on  the  first  fly-leaf:  "This 
manuscript  is  an  unpublished  autograph  by  Father  Fr.  Maturino  Gil- 
berti,  a  Franciscan,  the  greatest  authority  in  the  Tarascan  or  Mechoacan 


[No.  257— Continued] 

language.  I  believe  this  Dictionary  to  be  later  than  that  which  he 
had  printed  in-  Mexico  in  1559,  and  at  the  same  time  enlarged  arid  more 
correct.  I  found  it  among  the  books  which  belonged  to  the  Licenciado 
Don  Eufemio  Mendoza  in  Guadalajara,  the  year  1913,  and  I  purchased 
it  in  the  Archbishop's  Palace.  The  stamp  on  the  first  page  shows  it 
to  have  once  belonged  to  the  Sociedad  de  Geografia  y  Estadistica,  but 
we  must  believe  that  Senor  Mendoza  had  it  as  a  present  from  the  Society, 
as  there  does  not  appear  from  the  Archives  of  the  Society  any  receipt 
to  show  it  to  have  been  loaned.  Mexico,  March,  1913.  X.  Leon."

This  magnificent  work  deals  with  the  Archaeology  of  Mexico  and  Cen-

tions, etc. 

Loosely  laid  in  is  an  extensive  collection  of  photographs,  some  of 
which  are  very  large,  and  which  supplement  the  autotypes  in  the  printed 
work.  These  photographs  are  chiefly  the  work  of  Mr.  Maler,  the  cele-

468.  VOCABULARIO  MAYA  Y  ESPANOL.     Photographic  reproduction  executed

THE  GBEAT  MOTUL  MAYA  DICTIONARY.  The  original  manuscript,  from 
which  the  above  photographic  copy  was  made,  and  known  under  the 
name  of  "Diccionario  del  Convento  de  Motul,"  was  "picked  up"  by  Bras- 
seur  de  Bourbourg  on  a  second-hand  book-stall  in  Mexico  City,  for  "a 
song."  Finding  himself  in  the  United  States  without  funds,  he  sold  it 
to  Mr.  John  Carter  Brown  for  $150.00. 

Its  particular  value  is  not  merely  in  the  richness  of  the  vocabulary, 
but  that  it  presents  the  language  as  it  was  at  the  time  of,  or  shortly  after, 
the  Spaniards'  arrival.  It  was  probably  composed  toward  the  latter 
part  of  the  XVIth  century  in  the  Convent  of  Motul,  Yucatdn.

Adam  and  Eve.  Photographic  copy  of  164pp.  folio,  of  the  Pea- 
body  Museum  manuscript. 

The  Xiu  family  was  one  of  the  royal  Indian  lines,  and  after  the  Con- 
quest was  most  closely  related  to  the  Spaniards.  These  records  have 
never  been  studied  carefully,  but  if  so  studied,  they  should  do  a  great 
deal  to  establish  a  number  of  points  in  the  early  history  and  chronology 
of  Yucatan.
